Synthesis and structure verification of two previously uncharacterized pentachlorobiphenyls: PCB 108 and PCB 127

1992

Abstract The synthesis and structure verification of two previously uncharacterized polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners mono- ortho -substituted 2,3,3′,4,5′-pentachlorobiphenyl (PCB 108) and non- ortho -substituted 3,3′,4,5,5′-pentachlorobiphenyl (PCB 127) is described. The synthesis was done by the method of aromatic arylation in the presence of isopentyl nitrite. The purification and separation of the compounds was done by flash-chromatography on Al2O3- and charcoal columns. The structures were verified by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR and mass spectroscopy.
